Roma, Juventus, Napoli and Atalanta fans have been barred from upcoming away Serie A matches.

After the shock loss to CFR Cluj in the Champions League it is finally official: Roma have gotten off to a poor start in 2008/09. The club, including coach and players, don’t seem to know why Roma keep losing these types of matches – but Adam Scime is getting tired of the Giallorossi’s attitude…by Mike Maguire

Giallorossi captain Francesco Totti says he cannot explain the difficult period the club are currently going through on the pitch…by Kooi Soon Leong

Roma had a “wonderful” time in Siena last year and the 3-0 loss probably still hurts. They are entering this game ready to start winning in series. Triumphs over Atalanta in Serie A and against Bordeaux in Champions League have made them regain their confidence. In the words of Luciano Spalleti it was all in the players’ heads who were trailing at the interval but ever since Vucinic scored a different team was seen on the turf. It is a pathway towards the top after what the bad start will not be mentioned any more. Siena were beaten in Udine, difference in quality was obvious, they have conceded two goals, managed to get back in the game, but it was expected they would lose the game. If you remember our preview for this game we said t would be hard for Toscanini to deal with the offensive power Udinese have and that one goal at Friuli will not prevent them from losing that game. That is the way it happened, although there were some positive things in Siena’s performance in the second interval. It may be a recipe for beating weaker opponents.
